MAZEPPA at Blyth. The only one I can find that would fit was built by Palmers at Jarrow in 1872. She was wrecked on Flamborough Head in 1908.

J Fenwick and Son had an all black funnel so although we cannot see the RW on the White band, this must be her under the ownership of Renwick, Wilton & Co Ltd and dates the Picture between 1903 and 1908.

Thanks Paul, I see she was Dartmouth registered at that time and was wrecked on her way from the Tyne to Dartmouth. I guess it was a regular route for her, or Blyth in this case.
